Indian man's DIY 'missile system' to kill mosquitoes goes viral!

Desi Man’s Laser Mosquito Killer Goes Viral, Draws ISRO Jokes and Praise

A homemade anti-mosquito device built by an Indian innovator has taken social media by storm, thanks to its futuristic, laser-like technology that zaps mosquitoes mid-air—drawing comparisons to missile defense systems and even triggering humorous speculation about a job offer from ISRO.

The viral video shows the device locking onto flying mosquitoes with precision and eliminating them instantly with a quick flash of blue light. Many viewers likened it to the S-400 missile defense system, joking that the inventor has created an “anti-mosquito missile shield” right in his living room.

How Does It Work?

The video, shared by Instagram page @tatvavaani, showcases a device emitting a brief, focused blue beam that tracks and neutralizes mosquitoes mid-flight. The beam activates for a split second, locks onto the insect, and vanishes once the target is destroyed.

The clip is filled with tongue-in-cheek humor, including a mock comment from an “ISRO chief” saying, “If he can target mosquitoes mid-air, he can surely handle satellites too.” Another joking caption reads, “ISRO has offered him a job immediately.”

While the claim of an ISRO job offer is clearly satirical and not officially confirmed, it underlines how such creative ideas can spark both admiration and amusement. The video has garnered lakhs of views in just two days, with users applauding the ingenuity and asking where they can get one of these devices for their own homes.

One user commented, “How much does one mosquito-killing shot cost?” while another suggested DRDO could use the tech, joking about future mosquito-sized drones becoming a security threat.

Innovation That Hits Home

Mosquitoes are not just a nuisance—they spread life-threatening diseases. Traditional repellents like sprays, coils, and electric rackets often lose their effectiveness over time. This laser-style invention offers a new, tech-savvy approach to a long-standing problem.

Whether or not this device ends up in actual use by ISRO or DRDO, it has undeniably captured the imagination of the internet. And as India’s space and defense sectors increasingly support innovation from private citizens, this might just be the start of more “out-of-the-box” solutions going mainstream.
